CapĂtulo 2215: Chapter 2214: Drunken Immortal Brew, Prayers of the People
The Ancestor of the Yinchang Kingdom was compassionate, protecting some common people.
Later, as his reputation spread far and wide, more and more people began to follow him.
At first, these people formed a market, united together.
Later, as the scale grew, it became a small country, and everyone supported the Ancestor as the King, founding Yinchang.
Thus, the small Yinchang Kingdom appeared this way.
The descendants of the Ancestor of Yinchang became the kings for generations.
Strangely enough, throughout the history of Yinchang, there were almost no foolish or tyrannical rulers.
Every generation was a wise ruler who cared for the people.
Because of this, the Yinchang era was peaceful, and the people lived and worked happily.
Xu Zimei and others arrived at Yinchangâs largest capital city.
Zhoushou City.
This Zhoushou City is considered the largest capital in Yinchang.
The city walls around it are made of ordinary blue bricks and are not particularly tall.
The soldiers patrolling the area, their cultivation levels werenât particularly high either.
When Xu Zimei and the others arrived, they felt that the entire city was filled with the atmosphere of daily life.
There werenât many practitioners here, and many were even common people.
It could be said, this is a capital dominated by common people.
Yet, strangely, very few cultivators dare to commit wanton killings in Yinchang Kingdom.
It is said that Yinchang Kingdom has a great power, which is the blessing of the masses.
It is said that countless common people pray to the heavens, merging the power of heaven and earth with the prayers of all living beings.
The power of heaven and earth is inherent in the world, having nothing to do with the Heavenly Dao.
Thus, due to the power of heaven and earth, Yinchang Kingdom is protected by prayers.
If anyone kills in Yinchang Kingdom, even killing a commoner, they will accumulate evil karma.
Once the karma accumulates, punishment from heaven and earth will descend.
This is no joke.
Because of this, Yinchang Kingdom remains peaceful for generations.
To truly break the blessing and destroy Yinchang Kingdom, one must act from within.
Unless a foolish ruler appears in Yinchang, and the people stop praying and stop supporting.
Only then is it possible to truly break the power of heaven and earth.

âSteamed buns, hot steamed buns!â
âFreshly baked buns, tofu pudding from a ten-year-old shop, donât miss it as you pass by.â
âCandied haws, one bite as sweet as sugar teeth.â
Walking into the city, why do they say itâs filled with the spirit of daily life here.
The people regard food as the utmost necessity.
Generally speaking, when practitioners visit a city, they focus on matters related to cultivation.
For example, martial arts weapons, rare treasures.
For practitioners who practice fasting, eating seems to hold no other significance beyond satisfying the palate.
But in Yinchang, everywhere sells food.
The aroma of food permeates the entire street.
Xu Zimei and the Barefoot Monk walked down the street.
Xu Zimei asked, âDo you have a way to contact your senior brother?â
âOr should we force our way into the Imperial Palace?â
âNo need, we have a special way of communicating,â the Barefoot Monk responded.
âBut itâs ineffective over long distances, but just right within Zhoushou Palace.â
As they were speaking, the Barefoot Monkâs stomach suddenly growled.
Xu Zimei didnât expect that with the Barefoot Monkâs level of cultivation, he would still feel hunger.
Seeming to understand Xu Zimeiâs confusion, the Barefoot Monk smiled and said, âOur path of ascetic cultivation emphasizes the harmony of natural order and human life.â
âSimply put, we experience the lives of ordinary people while living the life of ascetic cultivation.â

âWe get sick and feel hunger; these are traits of ordinary people and the core of our cultivation.â
âIn a word, itâs about understanding the world.â
âThen letâs eat first,â Xu Zimei said.
In fact, he also missed the human worldâs delicacies.
In the past, he would occasionally find time to sit in a tavern.
But as his cultivation level grew higher, he became busier.
It seemed like he was starting to forget the taste of good food.
The two found an inn that was relatively bustling with business.
People tend to follow the crowd, where business thrives, the food is naturally delicious.
âShopkeeper, bring us all your best dishes,â the Barefoot Monk eagerly said.
He casually threw out several dozen Spirit Stones.
Logically, those Spirit Stones were enough for a common person to eat for a month.
But after receiving the Spirit Stones, the innâs worker unexpectedly said with a smile, âSir, if you want to taste our Drunken Immortal Brew, Iâm afraid those Spirit Stones wonât be enough.â
âDrunken Immortal Brew?â
Honestly, the two hadnât heard of this wine, but seeing the confident look on the workerâs face.
The Barefoot Monk asked, âWhatâs special about this Drunken Immortal Brew?â
âIs this your first time in Zhoushou City?â The worker immediately realized.
Only newcomers wouldnât know.
Otherwise, once tasted, even immortals wouldnât forget the Drunken Immortal Brew.
Some even come to Zhoushou City specifically for it.
To some extent, the fame of this wine surpassed that of Zhoushou City.
âŠâŠ
âGentlemen, the Drunken Immortal Brew is the National Treasure Wine of our Yinchang Kingdom, exclusively for the Imperial Household, guaranteed to be unforgettable for life,â the worker confidently introduced.
Seeing the worker speak so vividly, the Barefoot Monk was skeptical.
Although he is a monk, he follows the belief that alcohol and meat pass through the intestines, and emphasizes spontaneity.
The ascetic cultivation path is very strict on some things but indifferent on others.
For example, ordinary monks cannot consume alcohol or meat, but itâs not a concern in ascetic cultivation.
âNo matter how good this wine is, can it really compare to immortal wine?â the Barefoot Monk said.
In his view, no matter how good the wine, itâs ultimately made by mortal hands, different from that of cultivators.
But the worker didnât argue.
Instead, he smiled and said, âImmortal wine has the goodness of immortal wine, mortal wine has the goodness of mortal wine.â
âRemember, this wine can only be found in the human world, not easily seen in the heavens?â
âWell said, then bring us two jars,â Xu Zimei laughed.
He casually tossed out dozens of Spirit Stones imbued with Taoist Charm.
These Taoist Charm Spirit Stones are different from ordinary Spirit Stones.
They carry the insights of powerful figures.
The more powerful the figure, the more valuable the Spirit Stone.
They are truly sought-after treasures.
The worker, knowing their value, quickly collected the Spirit Stones and said with a smile, âPlease wait a moment, the delicious food will be here soon.â
Seeing the worker leave, the Barefoot Monk said, âIf the wine is not good, Iâll have to have a word about it.â
âGet in touch with your senior brother,â Xu Zimei replied.
The Barefoot Monk nodded slightly.
He formed a seal with his hands, and soon a golden bird formed in his hands.
The bird was lifelike, shrouded in Buddha light.
The Barefoot Monk said, âWithin ten miles, only my senior brother can see this bird, then heâll know Iâm here.â
The Buddha Light Bird is special.
Even if it flies in front of an ordinary person, many probably wonât see it.
Xu Zimeiâs power is so great that there is nothing in the world that can escape his notice, thatâs why he can see it.
Seeing the bird fly away, the senior brother soon arrived, and the two waited for the meal to arrive.
In no time, the worker returned with a dozen people.
